VOTING IS NOW CLOSED
Every year, The Bend asks readers to highlight the best the Coastal Bend area has to offer—local businesses going above and beyond, restaurants serving top-tier tastes and the first-rate amenities making life in the region sweeter. From old favorites to newcomers alike, it’s all up to you. We’ll gather the winners and announce them in our July 2026 print issue.
VOTE NOW
From Feb. 16 to Mar. 9, readers nominated their favorites in over 150 categories. Only the top five nominees from each category have advanced to the final voting round, which ended May 5.
If you or your business has advanced into the voting round, you may download this graphic to help promote your business. A black and a white Local’s List logo are also available for download to use in your marketing materials. If you have any questions, please refer to The Local’s List FAQ page.
